Understanding Texas Personal Injury Law
Texas law gives accident victims the right to seek compensation when someone else’s negligence causes harm. However, navigating the system alone can be difficult, especially when you are recovering from serious injuries.
Texas follows the rule of comparative negligence, meaning your compensation may be reduced if you are found partially at fault for the accident. Insurance companies often use this rule to minimize what they pay or to deny claims altogether.
That is where Bret Griffin comes in. As a former judge and skilled trial attorney, he knows how to counter insurance company tactics and present your case effectively. He and his team handle every step of the process, from gathering evidence to negotiating with insurers and representing you in court if necessary.

Accidents and Industrial Risks in Sweeny
Sweeny is known for its proximity to energy and industrial operations that support local and state economies. These facilities provide jobs, but they also bring significant safety risks. Industrial and refinery accidents can cause devastating injuries that affect victims for life.
Common causes of industrial and refinery injuries include:
Equipment malfunctions or explosions
Exposure to hazardous chemicals or fumes
Unsafe work environments or lack of proper training
Violations of OSHA or company safety standards
Negligent contractors or maintenance failures
Beyond industrial work, Sweeny residents also face risks on local highways and construction sites. Accidents on roads like State Highway 35 or FM 524 often involve high-speed collisions that cause severe or fatal injuries.
Our firm has successfully represented clients across the Gulf Coast who were injured in industrial incidents, transportation accidents, and workplace claims. We work closely with safety experts, engineers, and medical professionals to prove negligence and secure the maximum compensation possible.
If you have been injured in Sweeny or a nearby area, do not wait to get help. The sooner we start building your case, the stronger it becomes.
